Beast Taming Ascension

Chapter 85 Assessment Chaos
February 2, the 12,345th year of the new Tianyuan calendar.

The sky above Feilong Mountain was cloudless, and many young monks went up the mountain together. They were the candidates who were taking the academy examination.

Most of the young monks climbed the mountain alone, but some elders from their clans and sects followed them, wanting to watch the fun together.

On the top of the mountain, a huge arena has been set up. On the arena, the teacher Cao Zi is in the lead, followed by four students from the academy.

Lin Jing, who was wearing a white shirt and a gourd hanging from his waist; Zi Ling'er, who was wearing a fire-patterned elixir robe and had the fragrance of elixir on her body; Yuan Jing, who was wearing a pure black robe and carrying a long sword on his back; and Xu Zhizhi, who was wearing a green robe and had an elegant face.

"That's Mr. Cao Ziwei from the academy. He is said to have reached the Great Perfection of the Nascent Soul Stage and is proficient in the art of observing qi!" An elder introduced Cao Ziwei to his juniors:
"It is said that once Mr. Cao came back to the family, a young man in the family was looking for a son-in-law, so he asked Mr. Cao to screen. He only took one look and recommended a congenital mortal body to the young man among a group of geniuses, calling her a 'lucky wife'. In the end, the young man gave up a suitor with a special physique and chose this mortal body. Guess what? In the end, the two congenital mortal bodies actually gave birth to a 'congenital thunder spirit body', which is the most powerful congenital spirit body!"

"After that, many women from cultivation families like to pay a lot of money to Mr. Cao to select their husbands. If you can be favored by Mr. Cao, you will be blessed. As long as he says that you are a lucky wife, it will not be a problem for you to marry into any cultivation family!"

"I see." The young monk looked at Cao Ziwei with a fiery expression and said, "This technique of bringing good luck to your wife is indeed powerful!"

……

"Are these four people the examiners representing the students of the academy this time? Two in the early stage of foundation building, one in the ninth level of Qi training, and one in the seventh level of Qi training?"

There were also candidates who carefully looked at Lin Jing and the other three, selecting suitable candidates to challenge.

"It will be difficult to defeat the Foundation Establishment examiner, but if you perform well, even if you fail, you will definitely get a higher score than defeating the examiner at the seventh level of Qi Training!" A young cultivator analyzed and whispered, "If you have confidence in yourself, challenge those two!"

The elder beside him heard his analysis, slapped him, and said in a voice transmission: "What did I teach you? No matter what you do, intelligence should be put first. The person who is at the seventh level of Qi training is from the Beast Taming Sect. What is powerful is his pet. He just came to Qianlong City a few months ago and directly defeated a foundation building cultivator with his current cultivation level. His strength is extraordinary!"

“The other three were defeated by him half a year ago! Of course, they were all practicing Qi back then. Now that some of them have established their foundations, things are definitely different.”

"But no matter what, this beastmaster is more famous in Qianlong City than the other three. If we defeat him, we might get a higher score. After all, Qianlong Academy cultivates luck and reputation!"

"Ah???" The young monk who was beaten was dumbfounded. What?! So fraudulent?! The assessment of this academy is too insidious.

"So you should challenge the one from the Beast Taming Sect! He has the lowest cultivation level but the greatest fame. Who else should you choose if not him? He can show himself better and get high scores!" Seeing that the younger generation is incompetent, the elders told him the information they knew to prevent him from failing the assessment.

……

Most candidates are analyzing the information and deciding which examiner is most suitable for them.

This assessment is said to be a test of fighting skills, but it is also a battle of intelligence.

Of course, there are also those who are absolutely confident in their own abilities, with calm expressions, such as Wang’s divine body. He stands out among the crowd at first glance, with an extraordinary temperament.

Wang Xiao crossed his arms over his chest, his silver armor flashing, and his eyes were always on Cao Ziwei, waiting for him to announce the start of the assessment. He did not even look at Lin Jing and the others.

His aura is so strong that most candidates don't dare to get close to him.

"The time is up!!!" At this moment, Cao Ziwei flew into the air, looked at the people in front of him, and said: "I am Cao Ziwei, the chief examiner of this academy assessment. Welcome everyone to apply for the academy."

"Today we will have the first test. No matter what path you follow, your own strength is the foundation of everything. Next, please choose one person from the four academy monks in front of you to challenge. I will give you scores based on your actual performance." "Okay, without further ado, which candidate will challenge first?" As he said that, a strong young man who had practiced Qi at the ninth level flew onto the stage.

"I am Lei Chou from the Leiyin Valley in my Taoist domain." The sturdy young man introduced himself. The Leiyin Valley was not considered a big sect.

Bāgu was not practicing thunder magic, but the method of body forging, inducing thunder to forge the body, so there were faint flashes of thunder between his skin.

"I want to challenge him." He looked at the frail Xu Zhizhi and said, "I've heard of Master Xu's name for a long time!"

Xu Zhizhi walked onto the stage in a casual manner and looked at the cultivator.

"You are very courageous. It seems that you must know that I once killed a terrifying Snowfield Body Cultivator in the Cave Heaven! It was an innate beast body and very powerful. You are also a Body Cultivator. Do you want to challenge me to prove that you are more powerful than the Snowfield Body Cultivator who has entered the Cave Heaven?"

When Xu Zhizhi was praising himself, the corners of Yuan Jing's and Zi Ling'er's mouths twitched. How could a person be so thick-skinned and say it without blushing? That Snow Plains physical cultivator was clearly severely injured by Lin Jing, so you just give him one more punch!
"Yes!!!" Lei Chou raised the corner of his mouth, just wanting to prove that he was stronger than the Snowfield Body Cultivator!

"The assessment begins!" Cao Ziwei quickly announced the start of the assessment. Lightning flashed on Lei Chou's body, and his figure disappeared in an instant. He attacked Xu Zhizhi at a terrifying speed.

But at the same time, people saw that Xu Zhizhi had a bamboo weapon in his hand.

Xu Zhizhi's bright eyes flashed, he found the right position, pressed the trigger, and the machine gun instantly fired countless bullets, landing in the direction of the body cultivator's advance and his surroundings.

Xu Zhizhi continued to fire, rumbling a volley of spirit bean bombs. When the mist cleared, Lei Chou was already lying on the ground with his eyes open. He remembered that this was not how Wen Dao monks fought.

"You are fast, but I have been able to see at night since I was a mortal. I have extraordinary vision. Speed ​​is meaningless in front of me, and your physical strength is much weaker than that of the snowfield cultivator. I am afraid that my ability will hurt you too much, so I will defeat you with this bamboo spear." After saying that, he waved his sleeves and walked back, changing magazines in his hand.

Cao Ziwei looked at Xu Zhizhi, was silent for a moment, and then said, "Next candidate."

This physical cultivator was carried away. Apart from showing a good speed, his performance was horrible.

Many candidates were still looking at the weapon in his hand in confusion.

That's not right. Why does this thing feel more lethal than conventional literary and Taoist methods?

"Here I come, I want to challenge Xu Zhizhi!" Another young man came up, he was wearing a black robe embroidered with golden tiger patterns.

"The demon-slayer Gao family, Gao Sheng!" After he introduced himself, there was an uproar at the scene. Is it the demon-slayer family?

Xu Zhizhi was very happy to see someone challenging him again, but when he heard the name of the challenger, he was suddenly stunned and had a bad feeling.

After Gao Sheng jumped up, in front of everyone's stunned expressions, he also took out a machine gun that was exactly the same as Xu Zhizhi's and said, "I have one too, hahahaha!"

Xu Zhizhi's eyes went dark, oh no.
